Yeh thats the best way too do it. We went as a big group from work after we finished busy period. Had like 8 teams of 3 peeps, 160 laps all up. 20 laps then pit, if you dont then ya get flagged and do 10 second penalty stops. Ended up taking over my bosses seat, so was pittin in on my team then jumping into the other teams car and racing that. Towards the end the karts were just skipping like crazy, aint been that hammered in ages me thinks

Instead of Kart mania are there any fast Karts around still?

2stroke powa... :P bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

EDIT: Bah can't find them in SA. :D

They used to be up near Kart Mania Gepps Cross; went one day to find a whole lot of people from Minda down there. I still can't believe they put a down syndrome kid on one of their Karts. He came out of the pits, flattened it and didn't let off. bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa down the straight then bang in to the tyres. He didn't turn. argg... he appeared pretty hurt too.

I know a lot of them shut down due to Insurance premiums,

Hit the nail on the head. Adelaide Fast Karts closed down once the insurance premiums went through the roof after September 11th. It took about a year before they closed down (after they named premiums were going to go up). I used to go there all the time, it was wicked and you literally had to 'roll' around the corner's (or drift :(). And they had no restrictions around the tyres -> Meaning proper racing with no stupid nonsense. Anyways, tis closed and wish it was back. :)

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
